It's been awhile since the "occupy" movement -- but it seems not enough progress has been made. The world is in shambles. People are literally dying trying to reach a life with opportunity. On our own soil, the supposed land of opportunity, many of us are living with little to no purpose (and healthcare is a joke). Blind to reality, and hopeless in our ignorance. Those of us who have been born with the most opportunity should be creating the most change for a positive world. Start where you are.

"I am guilty of complacency. I believe that whole foods and a balanced lifestyle can cure cancer, diabetes, heart disease, depression, and many more diseases. I believe that there is enough land and water to nourish our planet's population, but we've allowed it's exploitation with unethical and environmentally hazardous practices. I believe that we naively bought our way into a nutritionally deficient and time crunched oppression. Ignorance is no longer bliss, and we must demand our way out. I believe that we must change our collective priorities to reap long term benefits from this movement. We must take sustainability and health care into our own hands. We must abandon our current sense of normalcy to propagate change for a sustainable, healthful, and ethical world that we can feel proud to pass along to future generations. We must put our money where our hearts are, and live to love. I am the 99%."
